What should have been a short visit to a temple turned to an interesting tour of the Caroni area.
Originally, we wanted to see Waterloo temple because of its story of persistance. An Indian labourer, Seedas Sadhu, had constructed a first temple on the seashore in 1947, after which is was bulldozered and Sadhu sent to prison, because built on the lands of Caroni, the state sugar cane monopolist.That's when Sadhu decided to built the temple IN the sea, and it took him 25 years to build the temple, all by himself and his bicycle with which he transported the building materials.
